Beautiful World by GeNie

Lyrics

This feels like global suicide

What we all know now, things are slow now, doing nothing isn’t working any more now
We’ve got to slow down, increase the show down, make some effort but we’ve got to do it quickly
We’ve got to move now, got to improve now, stop the talking and just get into the groove now

It’s a beautiful world but we’re killing our planet,
The future isn’t ours to burn so we can’t keep saying dammit
We’ve got to act now, we’ve got to do more, protect the icecaps, protect the seashore
This feels like global suicide

Let’s make a pact now, it’s a fact now, politicians need to get in on the act now
I wonder why now, they don’t try now, doing nothing well that really is a crime and
What’s the solution, revolution, stop this circus let’s prevent more air pollution

It’s a beautiful world but we’re killing our planet,
The future isn’t ours to burn so we can’t keep saying dammit
We’ve got to act now, we’ve got to do more, protect the icecaps, protect the seashore
This feels like global suicide

The time is running out we need to make a change
It’s time for action, ‘cos it getting pretty grave
If we don’t act soon there’ll be nothing left to save
This feels like global suicide

It’s a beautiful world but we’re killing our planet,
The future isn’t ours to burn so we can’t keep saying dammit
We’ve got to act now, we’ve got to do more, protect the icecaps, protect the seashore
It’s a beautiful world but we’re killing our planet,
The future isn’t ours to burn so we can’t keep saying dammit
We’ve got to act now, we’ve got to do more, protect the icecaps, protect the seashore
